"This is my Multimatic Dry Cleaning Machine. It is perc. Again I have set it at other times and there are many customers that do not like perc because of its health problems or as a health hazard in some cases. Many studies have been done on the subject and California has outlawed perc. But I am still using perc. I may in the future, I am looking into ecology friendly cleaning systems and I will in all probability decide to change. At the moment I am using my perc and it is on ready and I can push the power button and it will go into a wash cycle and go through a full programmed wash cycle. Now perc or the dry cleaning machine works similar to your washer. It sends the perc out, the perc sloshes around the garments and then it would extract it and the perc is then extracted into its holding tanks and the drying cycle would go on so when I take the garment out it will be dry. It will have the familiar perc set which wears off very shortly but it is one of the finest dry cleaning processes you can get but I am told there are many other alternative systems and I am investigating this."
